Even Kate Can't Resist the One Coat That Has Invaded the High Street

There is one coat trend that has taken off across the UK this season—you'll spot it every time you get on a train or go for brunch. Of course we're talking about the heritage checked coat. The Duchess of Cambridge tends to avoid trends, opting for items that are classic rather than seasonal, however, even she couldn't resist this major coat trend. Yesterday Kate wore a belted L.K.Bennett grey checked coat that fell below her knee and has four statement pockets on the front, and it is still in stock for £495. If you're still on the great coat hunt, you'll find checked beauties everywhere from Balenciaga to Topshop to ASOS.
